Harvest Moon Cows (crochet)

Cow Tuesday, December 31, 2013
After seeing a tweet announcing that the 50th anniversary game of Harvest Moon (A New Beginning) came with an adorable cow plushie, I instantly wanted it!

Art of Japanese Gift Wrapping Monday, December 30, 2013
This Christmas I thought I'd do something different and decided to wrap things in a more interesting way. I often watch NHK and saw a programme on furoshiki and paper wrapping and was inspired! ...in keeping with the Japanese theme, my boyfriend and I made takoyaki! Click here for the recipe. ...

I've decided to start the working day with a 30-min speedpaint as a warm up. Monday: Tuesday: Wednesday: I found this one quite tricky.

Fantasy Saturday, November 02, 2013
Here are some sketches from the past few days. I went to Iceland recently and they have a thing for trolls and Vikings. ;) Beautiful country btw - I highly recommend it (especially if you're like me and love spas!

So.....things have been a bit dead in terms of personal art since working loads for other people, and I was too lazy to scan stuff so here are some photos of doodles.
